As he navigated the Bridge of Sighs in Barranco, Peru, the husband noticed a woman sitting on a bench with a man laying down with his head in her lap.
While both of their faces were blurred, a regular practice by Google when they capture a person, the man instantly recognized his wife’s clothes, hair, and body shape.
